Podcasts about healthy life

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we stop treating self doubt like a mindset glitch and start seeing it as what it really is, an old protection system that has outlived its job description. Host Sana sits down with hypnotherapist, channel and former elite athletic coach Magdalena Lyle to unpack how childhood conditioning, family dynamics and hidden trauma program the subconscious to keep us small. From boardrooms to bodybuilding stages, Magdalena breaks down why so many high performers look confident on the outside yet quietly spiral in overthinking, imposter syndrome and perfectionism behind the scenes. If you are a founder, executive, athlete or ambitious professional who swings between “I've got this” and “Who do I think I am,” this conversation will give you a straight talking framework to understand your mind's protect and serve system, start reclaiming agency in your body and move toward decisions grounded in intuition instead of fear. This episode speaks to self doubt, leadership confidence, performance anxiety, trauma informed healing and nervous system regulation in real world language, not fluff. About the Guest: Magdalena Lyle is a Queensland based hypnotherapist, channel and mind body practitioner who started her career working with athletes and high performers on physical rigidity, then discovered their real constraints lived in the subconscious. Today she blends hypnotherapy, fascial stretch work and channelled guidance to help executives, entrepreneurs and athletes identify the childhood scripts running their self doubt, release stored tension in the body and rebuild trust in their own intuition. Her work is grounded, direct and focused on restoring personal agency rather than layering more affirmations on top of unresolved fear. Key Takeaways: Self doubt is not a character flaw, it is the mind's protect and serve system still following rules written by a younger, scared version of you. Childhood experiences, including “small” moments like being yelled at for spilling milk, can wire the subconscious to stay quiet, stay small or over perform to avoid judgment. Many executives and athletes wear confidence as a mask at work or on stage, while privately dealing with anxiety, overthinking, migraines, skin issues and emotional burnout. The body keeps score. Chronic tension in the jaw, shoulders or hips often signals a nervous system that has forgotten how to trust and relax, even when the mind says “I'm fine.” Hypnotherapy done through open questioning, not scripts, lets clients enter their own awareness, see the emotional “scene” behind the pattern and discover their own resources for change. Real leadership and performance strength come from integrating intuition, compassion and assertiveness so you are not two different people at work and at home.

On this Healthy Waves episode from the Healthy Mind By Avik podcast network, host Pragya gets real about what it means to design a life that actually fits you instead of endlessly upgrading a life you secretly resent. Life coach and Akashic Records guide Claudia M Gallegos breaks down why so many high achievers feel empty even when they have everything they were told to want. They unpack the invisible traps of building your world around other people's expectations, the myth of “Instagram perfection”, and the pressure to have one big cinematic life purpose. Claudia shares concrete practices like automatic writing, listening to your body as an antenna, and treating your path as an experiment rather than a performance. This is a strategic, grounded conversation for anyone ready to stop auditioning for a life that was never theirs and start building one that finally feels honest. About the Guest: Claudia M Gallegos is a life coach, writer and spiritual guide who works with the Akashic Records and deep purpose work. She has reinvented her own life across countries, careers and belief systems. Claudia now supports clients who look “successful” on paper yet feel disconnected from themselves and want a more truthful, aligned way to live and work. Key Takeaways: Most people are not designing a new life. They are only upgrading a life they never chose. Real change starts when you stop rearranging the same pieces and admit what is actually not working. The first trap is building your life around other people's desires. Parents, culture, work and social media become the blueprint so you ignore the quiet truth that your joy may be in a very different direction. A “good life” is not a perfect picture. It is an ongoing art practice. You show up like an artist in the studio, even on messy days, with a clear general direction instead of a rigid five step script. Discomfort is not always a sign you failed. Sometimes it is just a hard Tuesday. The work is learning to separate a temporary low from a real signal that your direction no longer fits who you are. Your body is an antenna. Subtle unease around a person or decision is data. When you override those signals for the sake of logic or convenience, you often land in chaotic business deals or painful relationships. Purpose is not always one big dramatic destiny. For many people it is seasonal, gentler and evolving. The point is not to become a superstar in a movie. The point is to live from your own essence instead of chasing external applause. Simple practices like automatic writing by hand, silent moments and embodied awareness help you reconnect with what you actually want, so you can make choices that reflect your soul instead of the crowd.

In this Healthy Waves conversation from the Healthy Mind By Avik™ ecosystem, host Sana and guest Kristen Crabtree deconstruct the usual script on mental health, mental strength and resilience. They unpack what happens when you are praised for holding everything together while silently disappearing behind roles like good wife, good mother, good employee. Kristen shares how 22 years in a psychologically abusive marriage, a bipolar diagnosis and trauma therapy in 2021 forced a complete reboot of her inner operating system. Together they explore how real mental strength starts with identity excavation. Not more grinding, but finally hearing your own voice under family rules, cultural conditioning and performance masks. They talk about privilege and survival, why telling people to just align with their true self can sound unrealistic for single parents and people in unsafe situations, and why boundaries can be a pragmatic first step when you have zero capacity. If you are tired of confusing survival with living, this episode gives you a sharp, honest lens on mental health, women's resilience, boundaries and rebuilding life on your own terms. About the Guest: Kristen Crabtree is an author, creator of the Paramore Paradox ecosystem and a certified trauma informed divorce coach. After decades in a psychologically abusive marriage and a long journey with bipolar disorder, trauma therapy and meditation helped her reclaim her voice and identity. Her book Be the You That is More You Than You Have Ever Beenoffers a structured framework for excavating your own story, identifying the roles and artifacts that shape you and stepping into what she calls your True You 2.0. Today she helps people move from invisibility and self doubt into clarity, self trust and aligned decision making. Key Takeaways: Mental health often erodes when we shrink behind roles and expectations. Kristen explains how constantly performing as the responsible one while ignoring your own needs creates inner chaos and long term psychological strain. Most people mistake mental strength for holding everything together and never asking for help. Kristen reframes true mental resilience as hearing your inner voice, accepting it and making decisions that align with who you really are. Kristen's turning point came through trauma therapy and meditation. Both helped her recognize the psychological abuse in her marriage, process earlier sexual trauma and reconnect with a self she had buried for decades. Her book uses an excavation metaphor. You audit the artifacts of your life, roles, traumas and stories, then intentionally design your True You 2.0, a future identity that expresses your real values instead of inherited scripts. The conversation names privilege directly. Kristen acknowledges that some people do not have the time, money or safety to do deep identity work, and that telling them to just align with their true self can sound tone deaf. Boundaries show up as a practical first lever. Kristen describes learning to feel in her body when a boundary is crossed and how protecting that line built self worth, self respect and the stability required for bigger life changes. Both Sana and Kristen emphasize that humans are messy by default. You are not broken or something to fix. The work is stripping away noise, shame and other people's blueprints so you can design a life that actually fits you.   If you're in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with indie author and resilience strategist Pam Chiaro to talk about what it actually looks like to choose yourself in real life, not just on inspirational quote cards. Pam walks us through leaving a stable career only after she was financially resourced, building a writing life as PK Stuart, and then having everything disrupted by an ovarian cancer diagnosis. She breaks down how she navigated treatment with a mix of medical care, keto eating, movement, meditation and spiritual tools, while staying grounded, pragmatic and honest about fear. Pam also explains how she uses astrology as a planning and reflection framework, not as superstition, to set goals, review progress and keep her life aligned with her values. This is a clear, no drama conversation about resilience, health, creativity, money, and why metrics and marketing can never replace the actual work or the people you love. About the guest: Pam Chiaro is an indie author who writes under the name PK Stuart. After years in business management and supporting startups, she transitioned out of traditional employment to build a writing career on her own terms. A pragmatic planner and lifelong meditator, Pam blends spiritual tools like astrology with grounded decision making. She lives in the mountains of western Colorado with her husband, close to her two children and six grandchildren, and is focused on both her ongoing health journey and her growing catalogue of books. Key takeaways : Strength is not loud aggression, it is quiet resilience, self trust and choosing yourself in hard seasons. Pam shows that quitting a traditional job is realistic only when you are financially resourced and honest about your responsibilities. An ovarian cancer diagnosis pushed her to re evaluate time, double down on writing and build an indie author career with intention. Keto eating, consistent movement, meditation and spiritual practices support her health journey, without replacing medical care or professional advice. Astrology functions as a planning and reflection tool for her, not a fear script, helping her set goals and review progress across life areas. She continually pulls herself away from vanity metrics and back to the real work, writing books and being present with her family in Colorado.

On this episode of Healthy Waves from the Healthy Mind By Avik™ network, host Sayan sits down with certified financial planner Jennifer Edwards to unpack how money stress lives in the body long before it shows up in a bank statement. They break down trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn. how these patterns start in childhood. and why they quietly run the show in our income, debt, spending and relationships. Jennifer explains her seven layer financial wellness framework, why nervous system regulation matters more than “perfect budgeting”. and how couples can stop turning money fights into character assassinations. If you have a steady income yet still feel unsafe with money. this episode gives a direct lens on financial anxiety, shame cycles and emotional healing so you can build wealth without burning out your mental health. About the Guest: Jennifer Edwards is a certified financial planner and founder of Breakthrough Financial Wellness. She blends financial planning, financial psychology. trauma informed insight and a seven layer financial wellness framework to help people understand why they behave the way they do with money. not just what to do next. Her work focuses on money trauma, nervous system responses, couples and money, and building financial safety from the inside out. Key Takeaways: Financial stress usually starts in childhood long before we ever touch a paycheck. Our nervous system learns survival patterns around unmet needs and those same patterns later attach to money. Trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn can show up as overspending, hoarding, overworking, procrastinating on money tasks or people pleasing with money to feel safe in relationships. Emotions are “energy in motion”. If we never express them. that energy can sit in the body as tension, headaches, stomach issues, tight chests or overall dis ease that impacts daily functioning. Many money fights in couples are not about numbers. They are unhealed nervous system responses that get mislabeled as character flaws. like “selfish”, “lazy” or “disorganized”. which deepens conflict and shame. Understanding each partner's money story from childhood builds empathy. Talking about how money was handled at home, who held power and what felt unsafe creates context instead of blame. Jennifer's seven layer financial wellness model highlights the often ignored neurological layer and the societal layer. Culture pushes consumerism and constant comfort. which makes emotional spending and chronic debt more likely. Shame around money creates a downward spiral. Reducing self blame. seeing the role of family and culture. and getting objective support lets people make calmer decisions that support mental, emotional and financial health.   Connect with the Guest: Listeners can connect with Jennifer Edwards and explore her work here Website: BreakthroughFinancialWellness.com Resources and newsletter available on the site.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with former healthcare leader turned multi seven figure mindset trainer and strategist Lin Yuan Su to pressure test a big claim. that up to 95% of success comes from mindset. Lin takes us inside the morning she broke down crying in her car in Canada, after years of doing “everything right” on paper. good education, respected job, security. She unpacks how fear, burnout and people pleasing can quietly run your life while you tell yourself you are just being responsible. Together, Charu and Lin dig into the Success Trifecta. mindset, strategy, action. They challenge privilege questions, talk honestly about money, motherhood, ambition and guilt, and get practical about how to shift your inner game without quitting your job overnight or spending big on coaching. If you are sitting in your own parked car wondering how you got here, this conversation gives you language, tools and permission to want more without burning your life down. About the guest: Lin Yuan Su is a former high achieving registered dietitian and healthcare leader who walked away from a secure career after years of quiet burnout. Today she is a mindset trainer and success strategist who helps entrepreneurs and professionals create what she calls enlightened success. wealth, time freedom and health that coexist instead of compete. Blending science based thinking, subconscious mindset work and practical strategy, Lin supports clients to move from fear driven overwork into calm, confident leadership in business and life. She is also a wife and mom, and brings a grounded perspective on ambition, family and what it really takes to build a life that feels aligned, not just impressive on paper. Key takeaways: Mindset is the driver, strategy is the vehicle. Lin insists that copying someone's business plan while keeping the same fearful, employee style thinking will often recreate burnout, not freedom. who you are being shapes what any strategy can do. Burnout can look “functional” from the outside. Years before that car breakdown, Lin was short tempered, exhausted and unmotivated at home, yet still performing at work. She now names those as clear burnout signs many high achievers normalize. You cannot afford to ignore your inner voice. Lin warns that staying misaligned out of fear can show up as chronic stress and even illness. She is not giving medical advice, but she stresses that emotional dis ease often becomes physical dis ease over time. Do not leap without a bridge. build one. Lin did not storm into her CEO's office to quit. She stayed, got coaching, shifted her energy, left on a high note and built a thoughtful transition instead of a crisis exit. Mindset work is not only for the wealthy. Coaching is powerful, but Lin is clear. the real investment is time, energy and willingness to study. Books, podcasts and free resources can start a real inner shift if you actually work with them. Manifestation is discipline, not magic. Lin shares client stories, like a restaurant owner who grew revenue 400 percent while cutting her hours to a third, and her own fertility journey after releasing deep emotional blocks. She frames these as examples of what aligned mindset plus consistent action can open up, not as guarantees. For women, harmony beats “work life balance.” Lin blocks non negotiable time for family, self and business and aims for flow instead of rigid balance.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with licensed psychotherapist, life coach, and wellness influencer Gina Gheller to break down what narcissistic abuse really does to your mind, body, and identity. This is not a highlight reel. It is a straight talk on red flags like love bombing, sudden flashes of anger, gaslighting, smear campaigns, and why so many smart people stay in unsafe relationships. Gina explains how chronic emotional stress rewires the nervous system, fuels anxiety, panic, and autoimmune issues, and makes it hard to focus or feel safe in your own skin. She shares low effort nervous system regulation tools, the biggest myths that keep survivors stuck, and what thriving actually looks like in real life, not on Instagram. If you are healing from narcissistic abuse, or supporting someone who is, this conversation gives you language, context, and grounded next steps for reclaiming your voice and your future. About The Guest: Gina Gheller is a licensed Texas psychotherapist, national life coach, and wellness influencer with a community of over 50,000 followers. For more than 25 years she has worked in the trenches with survivors of narcissistic abuse, trauma, and toxic relationships. She is the author of: 25 Ways Narcissist Abuse Survival Workbook 25 Ways Narcissist Abuse Survival Guide The Woman's Ultimate Divorce Survival Guide Through one to one work, groups, online resources, and her writing, Gina helps survivors understand abusive dynamics, regulate their nervous systems, rebuild self trust, and create lives that feel safe, grounded, and self led again. Key Takeaways: Narcissistic abuse often starts subtly. early “cracks” look like unexpected flashes of anger, cutting remarks, and critiques of the very traits they once praised. Love bombing is a major red flag. intense flattery, grand gestures, and fast tracked intimacy in the first months are not romance, they are control strategies. Survivors stay because of wiring, conditioning, and manipulation. cultural messages, children, financial entanglement, shame, and gaslighting all keep people stuck longer than they ever planned. Narcissistic abuse is physiological, not just emotional. long term cortisol spikes and hypervigilance can contribute to anxiety, panic, fatigue, and autoimmune style symptoms. Grounding plus boxed breathing is a low effort regulation tool. focus on breath, senses, and present safety to interrupt dissociation and trauma spirals in the moment. One of the biggest myths is “they will change if I love them enough or they get help”. romanticizing the past and minimizing the abuse keeps survivors looping back. Life after leaving is not instantly free. survivors often face financial fallout, health issues, social isolation, smear campaigns, and a shaken sense of identity. Thriving is not perfection. it looks like safety, clarity, smaller but real community, self trust, and building a life where your nervous system is not on constant high alert. *This episode discusses narcissistic abuse, trauma, nervous system regulation, and recovery in an educational, non graphic, and non hateful way. Some listeners may find these topics emotionally challenging or triggering. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with technologist and human strategist Stephanie Sylvestre to unpack the real question on everyone's mind. how do we use AI to uplift humans, not replace them. Stephanie shares how digital twins, vetted data and human in the loop design can expand access to mentorship, grow self agency and help people in low resource environments rise inside a tech driven world. From colorism and the erasure of Black history to job displacement fears and AI hallucinations, Stephanie calls out the realities without sugar coating, then reframes AI as a strategic tool for resilience, creativity and social mobility. This is a grounded, no nonsense conversation about using technology to scale belief, belonging and impact, especially for black and brown communities and anyone who has ever felt underestimated. About The Guest: Stephanie Sylvestre is a founder, innovator and strategist who builds AI solutions that center real people, not just algorithms. With a background in economic development and decades in technology and leadership, she now focuses on digital twins, AI mentoring and using vetted, bias aware data to increase self esteem, self agency and access to opportunity. Her work includes creating AI powered digital mentors and preserving Black history and lived experience in immersive, tech enabled ways. Key Takeaways: AI is not just about automation. when configured with vetted, high quality data and a clear purpose, it can act as a digital mentor, helping people take risks, grow confidence and see new paths. Self agency is the real unlock. people who believe they can influence their lives ask different questions, negotiate differently and create options instead of accepting fixed limits from jobs, policies or social norms. Many people self reject before the world rejects them. shifting from “I can't” to “Let me see what's possible” is a core mindset shift for careers, creativity and mental health in a tech driven world. AI hallucinations are a feature to manage, not a reason to run away. just like human conversations, we should trust but verify, keep humans in the loop and use AI as “copy, paste, edit,” not as absolute truth. Creativity and resourcefulness, especially in low resource environments, are underrated strategic advantages. these experiences train people to solve complex problems that AI alone cannot handle. Tech can help heal identity and belonging gaps by scaling representation. digital twins and AI tools can make it normal to see black and brown leaders, shifting what younger generations believe is possible for themselves.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik talks with autistic hypnotist Lawrence Bartley about what actually happens when anxiety starts to rule your life and why traditional talk therapy is not always enough. Lawrence shares how a single hypnotherapy session shifted a lifetime of anxiety, how the emotional brain ignores logic, and why real change can sometimes happen faster than we have been told. If you are dealing with anxiety, stress, fear or emotional baggage and you are curious about hypnosis, this conversation breaks down myths, explains how hypnosis works without mind control, and gives simple, practical tools you can try today. This is a grounded look at anxiety healing, hypnosis for mental health, and emotional regulation that you can apply in real life across work, relationships, and everyday stress. About the Guest: Lawrence Bartley is an autistic hypnotist who supports people. especially autistic individuals. to release anxiety, fear, stress, addictions and long held emotional pain through hypnotherapy. After years of anxiety that did not shift with therapy, counseling and lifestyle tools, he experienced a powerful change during a hypnotherapy training and decided to dedicate his work to helping others access the same level of emotional freedom. Lawrence focuses on practical subconscious work, emotional energy, and guidance that keeps the client in control of their own healing. Key Takeaways: Anxiety often comes from short childhood moments that the emotional brain never processed, so it does not always require years of work to shift. Logic alone cannot dissolve anxiety or phobias. emotions are stored in the emotional brain, not the analytical brain, which is why “talking yourself out of it” rarely works. Hypnosis is not mind control or movie style drama. in ethical hypnotherapy the client is always in control, following suggestions they agree to, and the goal is healing, not performance. Lawrence describes healing his lifelong anxiety after a focused hypnosis session during a training, following several days of going in and out of trance and working on his subconscious patterns. Emotional energy can be shifted by activating the anxious feeling, then imagining its movement in the body and reversing that movement to neutralize the charge. A simple self tool he shares. notice where anxiety sits in your body, imagine its direction of spin, mentally reverse the spin, then fill your body with a “healing color” that feels safe and strong. He also recommends Jin Shin Jutsu. a Japanese practice where you gently hold each finger to calm worry, fear, anger, sadness and low self esteem while you feel the pulse and let the nervous system settle. Real healing starts when you stop fighting your mind and start listening to what it is trying to protect you from. awareness plus the right tools can turn anxiety from a life sentence into a solvable problem.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with author Lee Ann Walling to unpack The Salt and Light Express, a late life debut novel about grief, guilt, faith, and reinvention. Through the story of Chris, a woman in her sixties driving an RV across the United States to scatter her partner's ashes, Lee Ann explores mindfulness, spiritual deconstruction, religious judgment, and the courage to love again. This is a grounded conversation for listeners navigating loss, questioning Christianity, rebuilding belonging, or considering indie publishing for their own story. If you are wondering whether it is too late to reinvent your life, this episode gives you a clear, honest reality check plus practical hope. About The Guest: Lee Ann Walling is a writer, former journalist, political and government strategist, land use planner, consultant, and now an indie author. At 69, she released her debut novel The Salt and Light Express, already earning praise from BookLife, Kirkus and Forward Reviews for its honest look at grief, spirituality, and late life transformation. Her own journey includes leaving, questioning, and reimagining Christianity across Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal and progressive faith spaces while continuously reinventing her career and identity. Key Takeaways  : Grief is not something to outrun. Chris's RV journey shows how staying in motion can create space to sit with pain, guilt and love instead of spiritually bypassing it. Mindfulness is not a buzzword. Chris's guilt after the accident comes from distraction at the wheel, which becomes a wake up call about presence, attention and how easily life changes in seconds. Faith can evolve without becoming fake. Lee Ann's path through Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal and back to a questioning Methodist community mirrors Chris's shift to a simpler, more honest form of Christianity. Honest dialogue breaks stereotypes. Chris's ongoing conversations with a Southern Baptist pastor challenge both of them to rethink judgment, prayer, salvation and what following Jesus actually looks like in everyday life. Reinvention has no age limit. Lee Ann wrote her debut novel in an MFA program in her late sixties, skipped a broken traditional publishing system, and built an indie path that keeps full creative control.   How To Connect With The Guest  : You can connect with Lee Ann Walling and learn more about The Salt and Light Express here.Website: https://www.LeeAnnWalling.com She personally monitors messages coming through her site and replies directly.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with MD Selig, a former Marine combat jet attack pilot, historian, filmmaker and author of the novel Hush. They unpack what it means to live inside real conflict, sift through war narratives, intelligence briefings and media spin, and still choose to let the heart lead. MD explains how flying combat missions, reading top secret intel and watching mainstream news side by side pushed him into a crisis of truth that logic could not solve. He shares how turning inward, using love as a compass instead of control or fear, changed the way he understands darkness, hidden histories and humanity's future. If you are feeling overwhelmed by global chaos, conspiracy noise or your own inner storms, this conversation offers a grounded reset. Not spiritual bypass. Not toxic positivity. Just a clear invitation to come back to your own heart and move from there. About the Guest: MD Selig (Michael David Selig) has lived multiple lives in one. He is a decorated Marine combat jet attack pilot, former intelligence officer, historian, musician and filmmaker with work appearing on Netflix, Showtime and Amazon Prime. He is the author of Hush, a novel that blends covert operations, Roswell research, dark hidden histories and spiritual questions into a cinematic story where love is not a slogan, it is the final force that drives everything. MD's core message is simple and inconvenient. You cannot think your way out of a world on fire. You have to feel your way through it, with the heart as your primary compass and the mind as the decoder, not the other way around. Key Takeaways  :   Head vs heart in a chaotic worldMD describes trying to make sense of war using only his mind. Combat missions, secret intel and 24/7 news all told different stories. That cognitive overload pushed him toward the only stable reference point he could trust. his own heart. Darkness as context, not destinationThe research behind Hush dives into Roswell, covert programs and unsettling histories. MD is clear that the goal is not to glorify darkness or fear. It is to see reality clearly enough that we can choose love from an honest place, not fantasy or denial. Media narratives vs lived realityDuring Desert Storm, MD watched CNN coverage that did not match either the missions he flew or the top secret briefings he read. That three way mismatch woke him up to how easily public narratives can be shaped and why internal discernment is non negotiable. Love as operating system, not sentimentFor MD, love is not a soft emotion you wait to feel. It is the core identity underneath the noise. When you move from that identity, your decision making, research, relationships and responses to crisis all shift into a different gear. Your heart as the only reliable compassWhether you are evaluating a leader, a story, or a friend. MD insists your heart can feel what is real. Words and data may look convincing, but your body and intuition will tell you when something is off. That internal calibration is a competitive advantage in a confusing world. Future may intensify, but the assignment stays the sameMD believes the collective moment may feel heavier before it gets lighter. His advice is blunt. brace yourself gently, stop outsourcing your sanity to headlines, and keep returning to love as your base setting. That is how you stay steady while systems shake.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with scientist, biotech leader and debut novelist Shivani Malik to unpack how grief can quietly reroute a life that looks “perfect” on paper. Shivani shares how losing her mother. the person who championed her move from India to the US for a PhD and a career in cancer research. forced her to ask a hard question. Am I building the life I truly choose. or the one that was handed to me as the immigrant gold standard Her debut novel “The Sky Is Different Here” becomes the container for that inquiry. blending STEM and storytelling to explore grief, ambition, belonging, identity, women in STEM and the emotional cost of chasing the immigrant dream. If you have ever hit your goals and still felt strangely empty. this conversation will land close to home and give you pragmatic language and tools to actually sit with your emotions instead of outrunning them.   About The Guest:   Shivani Malik is a scientist, immigrant, biotech leader and debut novelist. She moved from India to the United States for her PhD. trained at Stanford and UCSF and built a high impact career in cancer research and drug development. After the sudden death of her mother. Shivani began writing as a way to process unresolved grief and question the version of success she had been running toward. That process eventually became her debut novel “The Sky Is Different Here.” a work of fiction rooted in real emotional truths about loss, belonging and the complexity of being a woman, immigrant and dream chaser. Today she continues her work in biotech while using story as a way to build community around shared struggle, invisible expectations and the cost of never slowing down.   Key Takeaways: Grief will not stay in the background forever. Shivani reached a point in her postdoctoral training where the “unopened package of grief” for her mother made it impossible to keep functioning on autopilot. The immigrant dream can silently become an emotional contract. She names how passion for science and external expectations blend. making it hard to tell where genuine desire ends and cultural pressure begins. Fiction gave her psychological safety. By fictionalizing roughly shaped versions of her lived experience. she could tell the emotional truth without exposing specific people, institutions or workplaces. Science and storytelling share the same backbone. In the lab you still “tell a story” about how a cancer drug works and who it can help. That pattern of connecting dots translated directly into shaping a novel. Healing required both solitude and community. Writing helped her sit with grief. but reading other grief stories and later sharing her own created a sense of community that science culture had not given her. Everyone carries loss and dislocation. whether it is a person, a home or a sense of belonging. Shivani urges listeners to find some way to express it. through writing, conversation, walking, meditation or sitting with feelings instead of numbing them. Expression is step one. sharing is step two. Naming your experience with someone who truly “gets it” becomes a powerful way to move forward rather than just cope. How To Connect With Shivani Malik  : Shivani mentioned three primary ways to reach her.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Pragya sits down with J'Nai Zugates and Stephanie Thorpe, the co-founders of The Meraki Way, an integrative healing method designed for high-achieving, burned-out women who are done being dismissed by traditional healthcare. They break down how unresolved trauma, chronic stress and years of self-abandonment show up as autoimmune issues, long COVID symptoms, chronic pain, hormonal chaos and relentless fatigue. You will hear how Stephanie walked away from expensive medications and infusions that were not fixing the root cause, and how J'Nai went from being told she would never run again to completing a marathon after long COVID and multi-system damage. Together they explain how functional lab testing, somatic work, energy healing, holographic memory resolution, epigenetics and nervous system regulation can work as one framework. If you feel misdiagnosed, gaslit or stuck in symptoms no one takes seriously, this conversation gives you a grounded, science plus spirit path back to your own body. achieving women reduce inflammation, balance hormones and reclaim sustainable energy without sacrificing their ambitions.   Key Takeaways: Chronic symptoms like fatigue, pain, autoimmune flares and long COVID complications are often the body's response to years of unresolved stress, trauma and self-abandonment, not random bad luck. The Meraki Way treats health like a bank account. Everything from ultra-processed foods to toxic products to suppressed emotions pulls from your balance, while sleep, real food, sunlight, community and nervous system regulation deposit back in. Functional testing for hormones, gut health, food sensitivities and stress markers gives hard data that your brain and body are overloaded, and it also proves the impact of healing work when you retest. Holographic memory resolution and somatic work help locate the moment the nervous system froze during trauma, update the brain's story and release pain, insomnia and chronic stress patterns that standard labs cannot explain. Epigenetics shows that unhealed trauma can travel through generations. Working with mind plus body tools can shift patterns for you and your family line. High-achieving women often burn out because they carry everyone's problems. A core practice of The Meraki Way is giving those problems back energetically and learning that “no” is a complete sentence. Their 90 day framework combines functional protocols with intuitive tools like human design so clients leave not only healthier but with a clear blueprint for how they are wired to live and decide.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with psychotherapist, lecturer, writer, and former British Army soldier Liam Wakefield to unpack what really sits behind the phrase adversity builds character. This is a straight talking deep dive into childhood adversity, war, chronic illness, identity fracture, PTSD language, and the messy inner work it takes to rebuild a self that feels honest. Liam breaks down adversity driven growth, the role of narrative, inner parts, surrender, isolation, and depth without glamorizing suffering.  About the Guest: Liam Wakefield is a psychotherapist, lecturer, and writer who previously spent 11 years as a British Army soldier. His life has moved through childhood adversity, dangerous deployments, a rare genetic condition, and a full career pivot into psychotherapy. He now runs clinical practices in Sussex and London, lectures on depth psychology and trauma, and writes about adversity driven growth, identity, and the internal architecture of the self. Key Takeaways : Adversity is inevitable suffering, not a virtue. It becomes a catalyst for growth only when we change our relationship to the wound instead of forcing quick positivity. The psyche often fractures under pressure. We build defensive structures to survive. Growth starts when we consciously meet those fractured parts instead of pretending to be “fine”. Surrender is different from giving up. Liam describes surrender as accepting that the current version of you cannot carry everything. That honest collapse creates space for a more aligned self to emerge. Identity is made of many parts. Soldier, carer, sick, strong, protector, vulnerable. Healing means learning which part is speaking, which part is in fear, and which part is capable of leading with integrity. Adversity can distort when it becomes your whole identity or a shield from accountability. It deepens character when it is integrated, not worshipped. Real growth is privilege coded to a degree. Community, resources, and psychological support matter. At the same time, isolation and disconnection are often bigger threats than the pain itself. The work is not to be grateful for suffering. The work is to use what happened as data, depth, and perspective without letting it define your future.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with certified mental performance coach and strength and conditioning coach Jacqueline Kelly to unpack what it really means to be unfragile in real life. Not unbreakable, not perfect. Unfragile. Jacqueline shares how the concept started with her adopted son from Haiti, grew into a family ritual, and evolved into a mindset framework for athletes and everyday high performers. They dig into why toughness often turns into a mask, how pressure can either level you up or shut you down, and why breathing and awareness are not fluffy wellness hacks but performance infrastructure. If you are tired of generic “be resilient” advice and want practical tools to handle pressure, loss, injury, and self doubt without collapsing, this conversation gives you grounded, usable mental skills for sport, business, and life. About the Guest: Jacqueline Kelly is a certified mental performance coach and strength and conditioning coach who works with athletes from high school hopefuls to elite competitors. Through her Unfragile framework, she helps people build real world resilience, emotional awareness, and performance habits that translate under pressure. Her work blends mindset skills, nervous system regulation, and practical preparation so athletes and non athletes can keep moving forward even when life gets messy. Key Takeaways: Unfragile is not about being untouchable. It is about being human, feeling deeply, and still taking the next step. The idea of Unfragile started as a mantra between Jacqueline and her adopted son from Haiti. A way to honor his early survival and ongoing courage through sport and family challenges. Toughness can become a mask. Real mental strength means knowing when to drop the mask, ask for help, and lean on tools like journaling, meditation, and honest conversation. “Be the tennis ball, not the egg.” A tennis ball gets hit and bounces back. An egg looks tough then shatters. The goal is flexibility, not armor. Pressure breaks people when it is experienced as something external and uncontrollable. Reframing it as raising expectations of yourself brings the focus back to what you can control. Core levers of becoming unfragile. awareness, radical self responsibility, preparation, consistent effort, and an open attitude that does not shut down when things get hard. Diaphragmatic breathing that activates the vagus nerve helps shift from fight or flight into rest and digest, so you can think clearly in real time instead of spiraling. Bringing your attention back to “where your feet are” keeps you out of regret and anxiety and anchors you in the present play, meeting, or moment. How To Connect With The Guest: You can learn more about Jacqueline's Unfragile work and her coaching with athletes and performers here.

Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of home invasion, physical violence, trauma responses, anxiety and mentions of suicidal thoughts in a mental health context. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Megha Parekh, Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer of the Jacksonville Jaguars, to unpack what trauma recovery actually looks like when your life and leadership role keep moving at full speed. Megha shares the night her home was violently broken into, how her body reacted for weeks, and why healing is an upward curve but never a straight line. They dive into practical crisis toolbox strategies. from regulating your nervous system with movement and music, to using simple lists when your brain is overloaded, to naming what stresses you and matching it with specific coping tools before crisis hits. Megha also breaks down how to lead teams while you are still healing, why honesty plus boundaries matter, and how to support trauma survivors without trying to “fix” them. This is a grounded, real conversation on trauma, performance, and building systems that keep you alive, not just functional. About The Guest: Megha Parekh is the Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer of the Jacksonville Jaguars. She operates at the intersection of law, sports, entertainment, development and leadership, managing billion dollar negotiations and high stakes decisions. Megha is also a survivor of a violent burglary and battery in her own home, a long time volunteer with Crisis Text Line, and an advocate for mental health, crisis support and trauma informed leadership. Her work and story highlight that high performance and deep vulnerability can and should coexist. Key Takeaways: Trauma recovery is not linear. You can perform at a high level at work and still have days when anxiety, fear or numbness spike. Progress over time matters more than “bouncing back.” Your body keeps the score. Shaking, hypervigilance, difficulty breathing and forgetfulness after trauma are physiological responses, not weakness or failure. Naming that reality is the first step to self compassion. Build a crisis toolbox before you need it. Megha uses a simple two column list. on the left, situations that trigger stress, anxiety, loneliness or fear, on the right, specific actions she will take in each scenario. Simple tools work in real life. Lists for daily basics, familiar movies with no surprises, music with a steady beat, walking outside, and beach or nature time all helped her regulate her nervous system without overcomplicating things. Leading while healing requires transparency and boundaries. Megha told colleagues what happened, what topics were okay to discuss and that she might need extra grace, while still asking them to treat her as capable and fully present. If you want to help someone in crisis, do not jump straight to advice. Ask what is in their toolbox, what would feel supportive and what they need in that specific moment, instead of projecting your version of “normal” onto them.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with transformational coach Karen R. F. Mitchell to unpack what it really means to choose healing in a world that keeps asking women to shrink. This is not about cute quotes or bypassing trauma. It is about facing the moment you realize you no longer recognize yourself and deciding to come home to the woman you were before the hurt. Karen breaks down how women drift into survival mode through motherhood, relationships, and unhealed trauma. She explains why healing is an intentional choice, how forgiveness and sovereignty work together, and why peace and self trust are non negotiable in everyday life. If you are done people pleasing and ready to stop acting like a chicken when you know you are an eagle, this conversation will challenge you to reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your throne.   About The Guest  :   Karen R. F. Mitchell is a transformational life coach and founder of The DOE Tribe. Daughters of Enlightenment, a movement for women who are ready to move from survival to sovereignty. Her work blends embodiment, positive psychology, identity reclamation, and generational healing. She also hosts The Empress Lioness podcast where she teaches women to stop shrinking, own their inner lioness, and sit confidently on their rightful throne in life and relationships.   Key Takeaways  : Healing is not automatic. It is a conscious choice to stop carrying emotional baggage and finally look at what is hurting beneath the surface. The first step out of survival mode is to pause, breathe, look yourself in the mirror, and honestly admit where you lost yourself in motherhood, relationships, or trauma. Real healing and forgiveness go hand in hand. You cannot move forward without forgiving others and yourself, even if they never admit the harm. Sovereignty in daily life looks like inner peace, strong boundaries, and refusing to let other people's moods or opinions control your emotional state. Meditation is a practical tool to quiet mental chaos, hear your own inner guidance, and reconnect with a higher source. Every woman has an inner empress and lioness. Rebuilding self trust starts when you stop shrinking to fit in and decide to take your seat on your own throne.   Connect With The Guest  : Listeners can connect with Karen R. F. Mitchell here.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Dr. James Perdue, known globally as the Professor of Perseverance. At 19, one football hit dislocated three vertebrae in his neck, leaving him a quadriplegic and facing doctors who told his family he would be a burden and should be placed in a nursing home. Instead of collapsing, James built a new playbook for life. He breaks down his simple but uncompromising ABC framework for overcoming adversity. Accept adversity, Begin battling, Conquer the challenge. This is a direct conversation about grief, denial, rehab fatigue, and the moment he stopped chasing a “cure” and chose a future built on education, purpose and service. If you are navigating injury, disability, burnout or any life altering event, this episode gives you clear language, grounded mindset tools and a no excuses invitation to own your life narrative.   About The Guest  : Dr. James Perdue is a motivational speaker, best selling author, award winning educator, life coach and globally known as the Professor of Perseverance. After a catastrophic football injury left him a quadriplegic at 19, he spent years in hospitals, rehab centers and deep denial. Instead of accepting the role of “burden,” he built a life of impact through education, speaking and coaching. His core message. accept adversity, begin battling, conquer challenges. James now helps audiences worldwide move from victim mindset to active ownership of their future.   Key Takeaways: Adversity does not need your approval. it needs your acceptance. James is clear that accepting a life changing injury does not mean liking it. It means acknowledging reality so you can take responsibility and move. His ABC framework is deliberately simple. A. Accept adversity. B. Begin battling. C. Conquer the challenge. If you can remember the alphabet up to C, you can remember the system. Acceptance is a process, not a moment. James spent about five years in denial and depression, yet he kept trying therapies, rehabs and strength work during that time. Progress and grief can coexist. After 18 different rehabs, he stopped chasing walking as the only “win” and shifted to education and life design. College, a degree and a future he could actually live became the new definition of success. Family mindset matters. his family chose a positive, solution oriented lens, doing hours of home physical therapy together instead of internalizing the “nursing home” recommendation. Ownership is non negotiable. once you are up, dressed and in your chair or body for the day, James insists it is your responsibility to use tools, the internet, communities and education to build the best life available to you.   How Listeners Can Connect With Dr. James Perdue   Dr. James keeps it simple. Search “Professor of Perseverance” on Google. Website You will find him on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and his own podcast under that name.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Ali Yilmaz, co founder and CEO of AITherapy.care, to unpack how an AI powered CBT coach is closing the access gap in mental health care. From long waitlists and high session fees to the confusion around what therapy actually is, Ali breaks down why the current system leaves so many people behind. He shares how his own anxiety, isolation and burnout as a young product manager in the United States pushed him to build the tool he could not find. This conversation goes deep into cognitive behavioral therapy, AI, negative thought patterns, self doubt, anxiety, depression and emotional resilience, framed in a way that is practical for busy professionals, students and high achievers. If you have ever felt like therapy is too expensive, too slow or too confusing to start, this episode gives you a clear, grounded look at how structured self help and AI can work alongside traditional therapy to support your mental health journey and not replace human clinicians. About the Guest Ali Yilmaz: Ali Yilmaz is the co founder and CEO of AITherapy.care, an AI powered CBT support platform helping thousands of users challenge negative thoughts, manage anxiety and build emotional resilience in a private, affordable and on demand way. Originally an engineer and product manager who moved to the United States at 23, Ali struggled with loneliness, self doubt and anxiety in a high pressure tech environment. Traditional therapy felt expensive, slow and hard to access. Leaning on his background in AI and his curiosity about cognitive behavioral therapy, he built an experimental chatbot for himself that evolved into a global tool. Today, Ali and his team are focused on responsible mental health technology, transparent use of CBT frameworks and giving people an accessible first step into mental health support. Key Takeaways: Access gaps are real Ali experienced long waitlists, high costs and scheduling friction when he first tried to find therapy. That frustration made it clear that many people who need help simply cannot access it in time. CBT works because it is structured Cognitive behavioral therapy offers clear frameworks to spot negative thinking patterns, question them and reframe them. Ali highlights simple but powerful tools like asking. “Do I have proof this thought is true.” Most anxiety is story driven, not fact driven His anxiety was not about being bad at his job. It was about self created narratives and catastrophizing. Once he started testing his thoughts against evidence, his feelings and behavior shifted. AI plus CBT can scale support, not replace therapists AITherapy.care uses static CBT structures inside an AI system to guide users through exercises. It is positioned as a self help and skills building tool that can complement therapy, not a substitute for clinical care. The best products start from real pain Ali did not start with a pitch deck. He started as a young immigrant trying to breathe again. The strong early pull from users showed that many others needed the same bridge into mental health support.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life host Sana sits down with Australian author and happiness researcher Adam Brownlie to strip forgiveness of the clichés and look at it as a real mental health skill. Instead of treating forgiveness like a moral slogan, Adam frames it as the act of releasing resentment so your nervous system is not running on stress all the time. Together they unpack why so much emotional suffering comes from replaying past events, how our judgments create hormones like cortisol and dopamine, and why decisions are less about free choice and more about causes in our brain and environment. The conversation moves from theory to practice, with simple ways to notice your own thought patterns, question old stories, and loosen the grip of self blame. If you are stuck between “I know I should let go” and “I honestly can't yet,” this episode gives you language, perspective and tools without pretending the process is easy or instant.   About The Guest: Adam Brownlie is an Australian writer, speaker and creator of Happypedia, a holistic guide that blends science, psychology and modern philosophy to explore what truly makes life meaningful. His acclaimed sci fi novel The Last Gods uses future focused storytelling to ask hard questions about identity, morality and what it means to be human. Through his books, talks and community work, Adam focuses on happiness, mental health, relationships and the everyday habits that shape our inner world. His work is grounded, practical and centred on real human behaviour rather than quick fix positivity.   Key Takeaways:   Forgiveness is not about excusing harm. It is about releasing resentment so your nervous system is not locked in chronic stress from past events. True forgiveness is mainly for you. When you let go of resentment, the main benefit is your own mental health, sleep, focus and relationships. Adam outlines three paths to forgiveness. waiting for feelings to fade, changing your perspective on what happened, or seeing that the other person's actions were unavoidable given their brain, history and state in that moment. Our judgments drive our biochemistry. When we judge something as bad, we produce stress hormones. When we reframe or understand the cause, the body stops hitting the panic button. Decisions are often unpredictable in the moment, which suggests they are less “free” than they feel. Seeing choices as the result of causes can soften harsh self blame and harsh judgment of others. You can want accountability and still move toward forgiveness. Naming your pain and asking “What made you act this way?” can open space for understanding without denying the harm. Emotional residue, like getting triggered by old memories, does not mean you are failing at forgiveness. It can simply show that your beliefs and judgments around the event still need updating. Practical practice. regularly notice how your own decisions appear, question the story “they could have just chosen differently,” and look for perspectives that reduce resentment without gaslighting your experience.   How Listeners Can Connect With Adam Brownlie   Visit Adam's website and learn more about Happypedia and The Last Gods. https://adambrownlie.com.au/ Find his books, including The Last Gods and Happypedia, on Amazon author page listings.

Along the way he has left corporate life, moved through the end of a 20 year marriage and rebuilt his inner and outer world. Martin blends discipline with intuition, performance with presence and physical challenge with spiritual clarity. Through his Quality of Mind work he helps leaders access clarity on demand, regulate their nervous systems and lead from wisdom instead of fear and pressure. Key Takeaways  : Peak performance is less about pushing harder and more about removing the mental friction that blocks your existing capacity. The mind usually quits before the body. In extreme desert races, “escape gremlins” in the mind created stories to justify stopping while the body could continue. Obsessing over results and targets can damage performance. It fuels stress, burnout and illness rather than sustainable excellence. Most high achievers are driven by unexamined conditioning. Make more money. Move faster. Look successful. Without asking what any of that truly delivers. In a high pressure moment the simplest shift is to stop and breathe. Breathwork calms the nervous system so you can respond instead of react. You have to step off the hamster wheel. Retreats, quiet time and honest self inquiry are key to hearing deeper wisdom beneath autopilot thinking. Redefine failure. Playing full out means you will sometimes fall short. Protecting your image often costs you a fully lived life. Small physical challenges like cold water immersion expose how much suffering comes from the story in your mind rather than the situation itself. Real success is not about winning or status. It is about a healthy body, honest relationships, inner peace and meaningful impact.   How To Connect With Martin Palethorpe  : To explore Martin's retreats, coaching and Quality of Mind work.

In this powerful episode (guest-hosted by Sana), dream interpreter and spiritual mentor Caleb Matthews reveals how anyone can intentionally train their subconscious mind for lasting success. Blending cutting-edge science (Dr. Masaru Emoto's water experiments), ancient wisdom (“As a man thinks in his heart, so is he”), and practical spirituality, Caleb explains why your words and thoughts literally shape your reality — and how to shift from self-sabotage to divine alignment in everyday life. Key Takeaways: Your subconscious is always listening 24/7 — it doesn't resist what you declare, whether positive or negative. Science proves it: Dr. Masaru Emoto's water crystal experiments show that spoken words physically change matter — the same happens inside your mind and body. “As you think in your heart, so are you” — your internal focus magnifies and manifests (grasshopper mindset vs. victorious mindset). We are trichotomous beings (spirit, soul, body). Ignoring the spirit and only hustling with soul + body leads to burnout and self-sabotage. The SSB Method (Spirit → Soul → Body) creates true harmony and sustainable success for leaders, seekers, and everyday people alike. You don't need elite status — even with a mustard-seed level of faith and declaration, you can speak to mountains (obstacles) and watch them move. There is no neutral ground: you are programming your subconscious with light or darkness every single day. Practical declaration examples: finances, exams, relationships, health — speak blessing and reap the harvest (the universal law of sowing and reaping). Your voice is one of the greatest gifts God gave you — use it to train your subconscious for the prosperous future you were designed for.

In this powerful episode, host Avik welcomes certified grief educator and former respiratory therapist Lisa Rites. Lisa shares her personal journey through divorce, co-parenting, and recent losses while breaking down society's biggest myths about grief. She explains why grief has no timeline, how to support someone who's grieving (and what NOT to say), and how it's possible to carry grief in one hand and joy in the other. A deeply compassionate conversation that reminds us grief is love with nowhere to go—and that healing means integrating it, not “getting over” it. Key Takeaways Grief is not just about death; it can come from divorce, job loss, moving, or any significant life change. There is no “wrong” way or set timeline to grieve—some people grieve intensely for a lifetime, and that's okay. The stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance) are not linear—you can climb the “ladder” and slide back; falling back is normal. Society is under-educated: 3 days of bereavement leave is nowhere near enough, and phrases like “get over it” or “they're in a better place” cause more harm. The best support is presence and listening—ask “How are you feeling today?” and simply hold space instead of trying to fix. You can reach acceptance and still miss the person forever; acceptance means learning to live with the loss, not erasing it. Practical holiday tips for grievers: keep traditions alive, cook their favorite dish, light a candle, talk about them openly—let the holidays look different without guilt. Grief taught Lisa resilience, self-rediscovery, and the power of co-parenting with grace—even attending her ex-husband's wedding years later. Healing expands your story; it doesn't erase the love you carry.

In this powerful episode, Carter Doyle – a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, survivor of conversion practices, and founder of Leaf Psychiatry – joins host Avik Chakraborty to explore how shame-based religious teachings and non-affirming environments create full-body trauma, especially for LGBTQ+ individuals. Carter explains why chronic self-doubt, shutdown responses, and spiritual wounds are actually intelligent nervous-system survival strategies, and he shares practical, shame-free paths toward regulation, integration, and authentic healing. Key Takeaways: Religious and identity-based shame isn't just emotional – it's a nervous-system injury that can show up as chronic anxiety, dissociation, body disconnection, and a deep belief that “something is wrong with me.” Your symptoms are not moral failures; they're evidence your body did its best to protect you in an unsafe environment. Healing starts with tiny pockets of safety: noticing bodily sensations, building supportive relationships, and taking one curious step at a time. A simple grounding practice: Pause → Notice what you're feeling → Ask “Where do I feel this in my body?” → Allow the sensation without judgment. Medication, when needed, is not a weakness – it's pain relief that can create space for deeper therapy, lifestyle changes, acupuncture (NADA protocol), and spiritual integration. The most protective thing allies (parents, pastors, therapists) can offer is curiosity, non-judgmental presence, and safety – not fixing or conversion efforts. Conversion practices and attempts to change sexual orientation or gender identity are proven ineffective and significantly increase lifelong mental-health risks, including suicidality. True healing integrates trauma work, nervous-system regulation, lifestyle practices, and (when desired) faith – all in a human-first, shame-free way.

In this powerful episode, Melissa Deally (co-creator of Amplify Impact Academy) joins host Avik Chakraborty to reveal how Timeline Therapy allows deep emotional healing without ever talking through traumatic stories. Melissa explains the unconscious mind, the 4 bodies & 3 minds model, why talk therapy can accidentally re-traumatize, and how to dissolve lifelong anger, sadness, fear, guilt, and limiting beliefs in just one or two sessions. A game-changing conversation for anyone tired of feeling stuck in old emotional loops. Key Takeaways: The unconscious mind (90% of your mind) stores every memory and emotion but does NOT require you to retell the story to release it — Timeline Therapy works directly with the unconscious to clear entire “gestalts” of emotion at the root. Re-talking trauma fires the nervous system again and again because the unconscious mind cannot distinguish between imagination from reality — this is why traditional talk therapy often keeps people stuck. All negative emotions are stored in “pearl-necklace” gestalts — release the root event (the first pearl) and the entire string collapses, freeing you from decades of anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt, rage, and shame. We have 4 bodies (Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, Physical) and 3 minds (Superconscious/Higher Self, Conscious, Unconscious). True healing and longevity require alignment across all four bodies, not just the physical. Acute anxiety is a signal you're imagining the wrong future going wrong — use Timeline Therapy to float above your timeline, experience the event going perfectly, and the anxiety vanishes instantly. Move from Victim Island to Solution City by asking: “How is this happening FOR me?” instead of “Why is this happening to me?” — this single question shifts responsibility and opens the door to growth. You do NOT need to control or suppress emotions — you need the right tool to let them process and release naturally. One 2-hour Timeline Therapy session can create more peace and mental quiet than years of traditional therapy.

In this powerful episode, licensed clinical social worker and certified sex addiction therapist Mordy Gottlieb pulls no punches as he exposes how shame, perfectionism, and emotional disconnection are silently eroding men's lives. From hiding true selves behind masks to living a “living death” at 10% capacity, Mordy shares why most men only seek help after crisis hits (and usually because their partner forced them). He reveals practical ways to drop the armor, feel emotions in the body instead of the head, and finally start living instead of just surviving. Key Takeaways: Shame's core belief: “If you really knew me, you wouldn't accept me” → this creates deep loneliness even inside marriages and families. Perfectionism isn't strength; it's a shield that guarantees burnout and disconnection. Most men don't come to therapy because they want change; they come in their 40s-60s after relationships, work, or addictions collapse. Vulnerability is required for real intimacy; without it, your partner can only love the mask, not you. Experiential therapy works because it gets men out of their heads and into their bodies (focus on physical sensations, not “feeling words”). Hidden disconnection shows up as 6-8 hours of mindless scrolling, numbing, and avoiding what's really going on inside. First micro-step to reconnect: find anything safe (nature, a tree, a pet, a book) and let yourself feel supported. Biggest myth to retire: “Life shouldn't be hard.” Accept that struggle is normal; chasing perfection keeps you miserable forever. Men have become “nice guys” who never say no or express needs → this breeds resentment and destroys accountability in relationships. Ultimate fear holding men back: abandonment. Speaking your truth risks rejection, but silence guarantees disconnection. Permission to play: healing isn't just serious work; it's also about becoming childlike, having fun, and not taking life so damn seriously.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Laura Nicholls — writer, strategist, former therapist, and survivor-turned-thought leader — to explore how regulating your nervous system isn't a “nice-to-have” for entrepreneurs… it's the foundation for creative risk-taking, decisive leadership, and turning lived experience into impactful messaging and books. Laura shares simple, profound tools to move from hustle-and-burnout to flow, presence, and purpose-driven growth. Key Takeaways   Sophisticated avoidance disguised as self-care: Going through mindfulness motions without presence keeps you stuck — real mental health practices create flow, energy, and love for your work. 90-second nervous system resets for high-stakes moments (like launches): Try box breathing (4-4-4-4), soothing music, nature sounds, or naming 5 things you see to bring your thinking brain back online. Share the meaning, not the mess: When telling your story publicly, focus on the transformation and service to others — avoid trauma-dumping or using your audience as free therapy. Big leaps don't require white-knuckle energy: Creativity and decisive leadership only happen when the nervous system is regulated; dysregulation keeps you problem-focused instead of solution-receptive. From scattered notes to a clear book/message: Start with a trusted sounding board (coach/therapist/friend) or pen-and-paper journaling — the slower physical act of writing unlocks clarity faster than typing. Horses as profound teachers of presence and boundaries: Their naturally trauma-organized brains mirror dysregulation instantly, revealing leadership dynamics and emotional blocks in minutes that talk therapy might take years to uncover. “Clear is kind” in action: Protect your time fiercely — remind yourself “It all gets done, one way or another” and say no (or not now) without guilt to preserve energy and connection. Final gem from Laura: After regulating and listening to your body, the next step is receiving — our culture teaches giving, but openness to receiving is where magic accelerates.

Former Junior Olympian and college football player Tim McMahon has been a masters track athlete since age 32, having competed nationwide in sprints, hurdles, long jump, and decathlon. He recently expanded his athletic pursuits by competing in masters swimming for the first time at the Huntsman World Senior Games. Just three years ago, Tim was diagnosed with stage-3 lymphoma, and he also underwent a total knee replacement last year at the age of 65. However, this New Jersey decathlete, ocean lifeguard, and lifelong competitor continues to shine bright. Now in remission and cleared to sprint again, he's rebuilding strength, working through residual neuropathy, and training to return to world-class form. Send us a text

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Dylan Bost, founder of SunnyHQ and a former creative agency owner who hit rock bottom after years of burnout and addiction. Dylan openly shares how an existential crisis (“What is this all for?”) led to the collapse of his multimillion-dollar agency, years of deep healing, and the birth of a radically aligned, human-first WordPress hosting company. This is a raw conversation about turning breakdown into breakthrough and building a business that honors life instead of sacrificing it. Key Takeaways: Burnout rarely announces itself — it's the slow erosion of joy, identity, and meaning while everything looks “successful” on the outside. The most dangerous question an entrepreneur can ignore: “What is this all for?” If left unanswered, it leads to emptiness even at the peak of achievement. Rock bottom can become the foundation: Dylan's collapse forced years of stillness, embodiment work, plant medicine journeys, and nervous-system repair — the true rebuilding started there. You are not your story, you are the storyteller. Letting go of past achievements and identities is scary but essential for real transformation. Simple daily embodiment starts with 5-minute meditation — not to empty the mind, but to become aware of thoughts and let them pass. Awareness is the most powerful “drug”: once you see a destructive habit (endless scrolling, overworking, numbing), it becomes nearly impossible to keep doing it unconsciously. Alignment in business means designing the company around your desired life, not the other way around. SunnyHQ was built on clarity, simplicity, and genuine human support — no bots, no ticket queues, no chaos. True customer service is human connection: fast fixes + warm empathy = customers who feel genuinely cared for (and team members who love their work). Ask for help early. Vulnerability is strength, not weakness. You are not the first entrepreneur to struggle — and you don't have to solve it alone. Rebuilding yourself is the ultimate business strategy.

In this heartfelt episode of Healthy Waves, gerontologist and caregiver expert Janice Goldmintz joins host Avik to unpack the unspoken emotional weight of caring for aging parents—especially when dementia or serious illness flips the parent-child dynamic. Drawing from her master's in gerontology and her own decade-long journey caring for both parents with Alzheimer's, Janice offers raw, practical wisdom: how to hold grief and love at the same time, why asking for help isn't weakness, how to make big care decisions without tearing the family apart, and simple self-care habits that actually work when you're running on empty. This conversation is for every adult child who feels guilty, overwhelmed, or terrified they're “parenting their parents” wrong. Key Takeaways The hardest shift isn't the logistics—it's emotionally moving from “child” to “care advocate” while still feeling like a kid inside. Acknowledge the emotions (guilt, resentment, grief) instead of suppressing them—pretending you're “fine” only makes burnout worse. No one does this perfectly—even trained gerontologists make mistakes. Progress, not perfection, is the goal. Top 3 family mistakes: (1) Assuming everyone will contribute equally, (2) Waiting until crisis to plan, (3) Refusing to adapt when the original plan stops working. Mindset shift that changes everything: Stop expecting fairness; assign tasks by strength, not equality—someone's great at finances, someone else at emotional support. Self-care isn't selfish—it's self-centered (centering yourself so you can keep showing up). Put your oxygen mask on first. Sustainable caregiver habits: 10-minute walks (even in a mall), scheduled dog walks, quick breathing breaks, reading for knowledge/power, respite stays at retirement homes. With dementia: “Go where they are.” If Dad thinks he's on the farm, ask about the animals—enter their reality to create moments of joy and deeper connection. Final truth: This journey is messy, exhausting, heartbreaking… and one of the most rewarding acts of love you'll ever give.

In this transformative episode, integrative health practitioner and co-founder of Amplify Impact Academy, Melissa Deally, joins host Avik Chakraborty to reveal why most people are only using 10–25% of who they really are. Melissa breaks down the 4 interconnected bodies (spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical), the 3 minds (conscious, unconscious, and higher self/superconscious), and how Timeline Therapy rapidly clears decades of stored negative emotions and limiting beliefs — without years of talk therapy. Discover practical tools like the “Clear the Screen” method to dissolve anxiety instantly and step fully into your life's mission. Key Takeaways: We have 4 bodies: Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, and Physical. Physical symptoms are usually the last to appear after imbalances in the other three. True, lasting healing requires addressing all four bodies — not just the physical. We have 3 minds: – Conscious mind (10% – logic & willpower) – Unconscious mind (90% – emotions, memories, imagination) – Higher Self / Superconscious (blueprint for perfect health & life mission) Children live fully in the unconscious mind until age 7–9, downloading beliefs like sponges — this is where most limiting programming begins. Timeline Therapy clears the 7 major negative emotions (anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt, rage, shame) at their root cause in one session by working with the unconscious mind. Emotions are stored in “gestalts” (like pearls on a necklace) — release the first pearl (root event) and the entire chain falls away. All humans share at least one of four core limiting decisions: I'm unworthy, unlovable, powerless, or not good enough. Talk therapy can unintentionally deepen trauma because the unconscious mind re-experiences the event every time it's retold. The “Clear the Screen” method eliminates acute anxiety by shifting focus from the imagined “horror show” to the desired “love story” outcome — in minutes. You cannot “think” your way to solutions or perfect health; the conscious mind doesn't directly connect to the Higher Self — answers come through the unconscious (shower thoughts, driving insights, middle-of-the-night clarity). Anxiety's purpose is to alert you that you're focusing on what you DON'T want — change the focus, and the anxiety dissolves.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Cynthia Lee, founder of Tree, to unpack what it really means to build a business from alignment instead of pressure. In a world obsessed with hustle culture, constant output and algorithm chasing, Cynthia gets real about how much of that “productivity” is actually anxiety in motion. She breaks down the difference between acting from fear versus acting from inspiration, why burnout does not build anything sustainable, and how listening to your nervous system can become a genuine business strategy, not just self care talk. You will hear how Cynthia is building Tree as a first of its kind platform for everyday creators to turn their gifts into revenue in a way that feels human, values-led and mentally healthy. This conversation is built for creators, founders and professionals who are tired of pushing and want a model of success that fits their actual life, not just their LinkedIn headline. About the Guest  : Cynthia Lee is the founder of Tree, a platform designed to help everyday creators turn their natural talents, multi-passionate interests and lived experience into sustainable, heart-centered businesses. She blends practical strategy with deep inner work, guiding people to move from grind and external validation to alignment, clarity and inspired action. Tree is her way of reimagining entrepreneurship so that authenticity, mental health and accessibility sit at the center of how we build, scale and lead. Key Takeaways  : Pressure vs inspiration is an internal metric. If your drive is rooted in proving yourself, fear of falling behind or social comparison, that is pressure. If it feels like genuine curiosity, excitement and clarity, that is inspired action. Alignment comes with a pause, then a leap. Cynthia shares how her biggest moves did not come from constant grinding but from pausing, checking in with her inner compass, then taking one clear, bold step instead of scattered micro actions. Hustle culture quietly disconnects us from what lights us up. Many entrepreneurs optimize only for income and stability, then forget to ask what actually energizes them. Reconnection starts by writing down what you love, what you want to monetize and how you want to offer it. Multi-passionate is not a weakness, it is an asset. Cynthia had seven very different offers inside one business. She reframed them as valid, monetizable gifts rather than “too much”, and now champions a model where all parts of you are allowed in your business. Success in the new era is self-defined, not handed down. The old “recipe” for business is just one person's playbook. Cynthia invites creators to design their own blueprint for success based on authenticity, nervous-system safety and the kind of life they actually want to live. Building a business is also a mental and spiritual upgrade. Entrepreneurship forces you to confront unworthiness, doubt and the urge to play small. Cynthia names this as an opportunity to expand into a fuller, more confident version of yourself, not just a bigger revenue number.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with spiritual guide and medium Gloria Battini to strip the fluff out of intuition. They unpack the real difference between intuition and anxiety, how to read your somatic cues, and why your nervous system is the gatekeeper for any psychic or inner knowing work. Gloria shares a simple 60 to 90 second protocol you can use in the middle of a work conflict, money decision or relationship wobble. Box breathing, a driving seat visualization and mental dials help you turn the volume down on catastrophizing thoughts and turn it up on grounded inner guidance. They also explore how mediumship and energy work can support grief and loss without bypassing reality, and how to vet ethical readers who do not use fear or urgency as a hook. If you have ever wondered whether you can trust your gut about a job offer, an investment or a relationship, this conversation gives you a very practical starting point   About the Guest: Gloria Battini is a grounded spiritual guide, psychic medium and intuitive teacher. She helps people reconnect with their psychic senses in a way that supports everyday life decisions, not just woo experiences. Gloria works with mediumship, tarot, energy hygiene, moon ceremonies and somatic awareness to help clients regulate their nervous system and trust their inner voice. She hosts regular live sessions on her YouTube channel “Gloria Battini” and teaches on the Insight Timer meditation app, where she offers courses, meditations and live events for people on a spiritual and self healing journey.   Key Takeaways  :   Psychic abilities are standard issue, not a rare gift. Everyone is born with intuition but conditioning, stress and disconnection can muffle the signal. Anxiety lives in the head. Intuition lives in the gut and heart. Anxiety feels frantic, fear based and overthinking. Intuition feels grounded, clear and not rushed, even when it says no. A 60 to 90 second reset can change everything. Box breathing, shifting into the driving seat in the center of the mind and visualizing two dials for anxiety and intuition helps regulate the nervous system before making decisions. Your body is data. Tight chest, shaky breath, sweaty palms or a closing throat are red flag cues to pause, regulate and reassess. Spaciousness, relaxation and even boredom are often green lights. Mediumship can support grief, not replace reality. Gloria frames connecting with loved ones as a way to transform the relationship after death, not avoid loss or hard emotions. Ethical readers never lead with fear or pressure. If someone pushes urgency, sells repeated fixes or shares only negative messages, that is a red flag. Intuition belongs in boardrooms and budgets too. Spreadsheets give you logic. Intuition gives you alignment. Strong decisions use both.   How Listeners Can Connect With Gloria Battini  : Listeners who resonated with Gloria's approach to intuition and mediumship can connect with her here.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with international best selling author and publishing mentor L.S. Kirkpatrick to get real about the invisible cost of entrepreneurship. Not the funnels or the hustle. The self doubt. They unpack what happens when your vision board comes down, the money is slow, and you start questioning your worth as a founder, creator or writer. L.S. shares how she went from stay at home grandmother to 22 time award winning author and publisher in just three years, why comparison to “ten year overnight successes” quietly kills momentum, and how to use your story as an asset instead of a wound. If you are building a business, writing a book or turning life experience into impact, this conversation will help you reset your metrics for success and remember that you are the most valuable asset in your brand. About the Guest: L.S. Kirkpatrick is an international best selling and 22 time award winning author, publisher and inspirational speaker. She helps women aged 40 to 65 reclaim their voice and purpose by turning real life experience into books, talks and legacy projects. In just three years she has contributed to or published 47 books, including her own 35 Day Journal and multiple collaborative “Giving Book” volumes. As founder of Wisdom On The Frontporch, a podcast and magazine, L.S. mentors purpose driven entrepreneurs who are ready to share their story without losing themselves in the process. Her work centres on self worth, storytelling and practical business skills for late blooming leaders. Key Takeaways: Self doubt is part of the entrepreneurial journey, not proof that you are failing. You can pause to reassess without quitting on your business. Stop comparing your year one to someone else's year ten. Context matters and most “overnight success” stories hide a long runway of learning. Your story does not have to be graphic to be powerful. You can share lessons, choices and patterns without retraumatising yourself or your audience. Service first is a better strategy than chasing money. Focus on helping people get results and financial growth tends to follow over time. Collaborative books and anthologies are a low risk way to test your message, build credibility and see if authorship fits your long term vision. Give yourself grace in the messy middle. You already have a one hundred percent track record of surviving hard days, and that resilience is part of your brand equity. How To Connect With L.S. Kirkpatrick  : Listeners can connect with L.S. and explore her books, collaborative projects and mentoring via: Website. https://lskirkpatrick.com Podcast and magazine https://www.wisdomonthefrontporch.com/ Social media: Search for L.S.

In this episode of Healthy Mind Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Graham Kuhn, founder of Focus Films and strategic video storytelling expert, to unpack what actually makes business videos convert on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Graham breaks down why most polished videos flop, how authenticity builds trust at scale, and why your story will always outperform a perfect script. He shares the exact mindset shift that helped him move from “video guy at church” to trusted partner for national brands, and how he uses one two hour shoot to create a full year of content that keeps working while you sleep. If you are an entrepreneur, coach or creator who hates being on camera or feels like a fraud when you hit record, this episode gives you a direct, fluff free roadmap to show up real, use video as a mirror and turn your story into a strategic asset across every social platform.   About the Guest: Graham Kuhn is the founder of Focus Films, a video strategy agency that helps service based businesses turn authentic storytelling into revenue. Raised in a blue collar farm town and trained in music and opera, Graham blends work ethic, emotional intelligence and sales psychology to craft videos that actually move people to action. He is known for brand story videos that double conversations, shorten sales cycles and make brands feel human   Key Takeaways  :   Authenticity beats polish. Scripted, robotic videos feel salesy on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Real conversation and honest emotion are what build trust and keep people watching. Your story is your unfair advantage. As Graham puts it, you escape competition through authenticity. No one can compete with you being you, so your lived experience is the core of your brand strategy. Imposter syndrome is data, not a verdict. Feeling like a fraud often means you care about delivering real value. Confidence grows through action, results and remembering that you know more about your craft than your clients do. Batch content is the sustainable play. A single one to two hour shoot can become a hero brand story video plus a year of repurposed clips for Reels, Shorts and LinkedIn posts, which stops the constant content hamster wheel. AI raises the bar for human connection. As AI generated visuals and captions flood feeds, human, imperfect, vulnerable storytelling becomes the standout differentiator across platforms. People buy presence, not production. Viewers are not looking for perfect lighting. They are looking for a real person who understands their problem and speaks from lived experience.   Connect with the Guest  : Listeners can connect with Graham Kuhn here.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Pragya sits down with Rafael Pinho, CFA, co-founder and CFO of TD Pine Advisors, to unpack a brutal but necessary question for every founder. Is your company actually valuable, or just busy. Rafael breaks down the real drivers of business value in today's volatile market. Predictable cash flow, capital efficiency, conservative forecasting, and smart use of AI. He explains the concept of the value gap. The difference between what your business is worth today and what it could be worth if you stop over-indexing on vanity metrics and start running with financial clarity. If you are a founder, investor, or operator trying to navigate fundraising, exits, or sustainable growth, this conversation gives you a straight-talking framework to think less like a revenue chaser and more like a value creator. About the Guest  : Rafael Pinho, CFA is the co-founder and CFO of TD Pine Advisors, where he helps owners of privately held businesses understand what their companies are truly worth and how to close the gap between current value and potential value. With deep experience in financial strategy, valuation, and capital allocation, he works with founders to build predictable cash flow, resilient business models, and credible paths to scale or exit in complex markets. Key Takeaways  : The value gap is the space between what your business is worth today and what it could be worth if it were less dependent on the founder and built on predictable, repeatable cash flow instead of one-off wins. Revenue and valuation got heavily conflated during the 2021-2022 boom. Long term, cash flow, consistency, and resilience drive value more than raw top line growth. Investors are increasingly rewarding three things. Predictability of revenue and earnings, healthy profitability with solid margins, and credible long term growth tailwinds in the market the business serves. Founders who run their companies “by the bank balance” are flying blind. A rolling 13 week cash flow view plus a 12 month forecast and budget dramatically increases decision making clarity and investor confidence. Hidden value often sits in under-served markets and new channels that founders are too conservative or busy to explore. A structured, budgeted experiment can safely unlock those opportunities. AI should be treated as an efficiency and productivity lever, not a magic growth trick. Used well, it improves margins and scalability and that directly impacts long term business value. Avoid recency bias. Do not assume last month's spike or crash is the new normal. Anchor your planning in fundamentals and conservative assumptions rather than emotional reactions to recent numbers. How Listeners Can Connect With the Guest   Website: https://tdpineadvisors.com/ LinkedIn: Search for “Rafael Pinho TD Pine Advisors” and connect with him directly. He is active and responsive to founders and investors who want to discuss valuation, value creation, and financial strategy. Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

  In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with trauma support specialist, writer, and reclamation coach Ashana Kaiulani to unpack what real healing looks like when you stop treating it like a checklist. No more chasing the next journal prompt, cold plunge, or affirmation. Instead, Ashana shares her Peaceful Accountability Method, a nervous system centered framework that helps survivors of childhood abuse, domestic violence, betrayal, and narcissistic abuse move from survival mode into grounded self trust. You will hear a direct conversation on how to befriend your nervous system, build safety from the inside out, and replace self blame with honest self awareness, self compassion, and self validation. If you feel tired of “fixing yourself” and still ending up in the same patterns, this episode will help you see healing as a homecoming, not a performance. About the Guest  : Ashana Kaiulani is a trauma support specialist, writer, and reclamation coach who works with women healing from deep betrayal and narcissistic abuse. Drawing from her own journey through childhood abuse, domestic violence, and raising eight children, she created the Peaceful Accountability Method, a relational and nervous system based approach that centers safety, compassion, and real life change. She also hosts The Reclamation Room podcast and leads her work through Way Home Wellness. Key Takeaways : Healing is not a race to a finish line. It is remembering who you have always been and letting your nervous system experience safety in real time. The Peaceful Accountability Method focuses on befriending your nervous system instead of “controlling” or “fixing” it, using imagination, body awareness, and gentle presence. Safety is something we build, not something we wait to be given. Often it feels unfamiliar or even “boring” at first if you have lived in survival mode. Self awareness, self compassion, and self validation become powerful when you stop using them as self help buzzwords and start applying them to everyday triggers and patterns. Moving out of learned victimhood requires honest accountability with deep kindness. You can acknowledge harm and still choose new behaviour without shaming yourself. Healing is relational. Community, safe witnesses, and supportive guidance help widen your lens beyond trauma tunnel vision and rebuild trust in yourself and others.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Michelle Bader Ebersole, author of Widow Goals, certified grief recovery specialist, and founder of the nonprofit Widow Goals. Together they unpack what it really looks like to rebuild your life after loss, whether that loss is a spouse, a relationship, a home, or even a former version of yourself. Michelle shares how she went from being a 41 year old widow with three kids to leading retreats, running a nonprofit, and hosting the Widow Too Soon podcast. She explains why grief shows up in the body as anxiety and exhaustion, why “feeling it to heal it” is non negotiable, and how simple daily practices like gratitude can literally rewire your brain. This conversation is honest, faith centered, and practical. It speaks directly to entrepreneurs, leaders, and everyday humans who are functioning on the outside but quietly carrying loss on the inside. If you have ever wondered whether peace is possible again after everything has changed, this episode will give you language, tools, and hope you can actually use in real life.   About The Guest: Michelle Bader Ebersole is an author, speaker, and certified grief recovery specialist who became a widow at 41 while raising three teenagers. Out of that experience she created Widow Goals, a nonprofit that supports widows and widowers through community, coaching, and practical tools for rebuilding life after loss. She is the author of “Widow Goals: Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your Spouse”, host of the Widowed 2 Soon podcast, and a grief group facilitator who helps people unpack all kinds of grief, not only death. Through faith, neuroscience informed practices, and real talk about pain, Michelle guides people from barely surviving to living with purpose again.   Key Takeaways:   Grief is not only about death. It is the emotional response to any significant loss or change. Divorce, moving, a lost pet, or losing a version of yourself all count as grief. In early grief, it feels like constant storm clouds. Over time, if you do the work, small “sunny moments” return. A first genuine laugh or a simple moment of joy is often the turning point from pure pain toward purpose. Suppressing emotions keeps you stuck. Healing requires feeling the grief fully. You cannot go around it, you cannot go over it, you have to go through it. Tears are not weakness, they are movement. Grief impacts the body and mind. After witnessing her husband's death, Michelle experienced intense health anxiety and physical symptoms. This is a common but often misunderstood stage of grief related anxiety. Simple daily gratitude is a powerful brain rewiring tool. Writing down three things you are thankful for each night trains your mind to look for what is still good, instead of only scanning for what is missing. Giving back accelerates healing. When you pour into others who share your kind of loss, you create a ripple of hope that helps you as much as it helps them. Many “baby widows” Michelle supported now lead their own groups. Grief work is active, not passive. Like a flat tire, your grief will not “get better in a year” if you do nothing. Books, counseling, grief recovery programs, podcasts, and support groups are the work that moves you forward.   How Listeners Can Connect With Michelle Bader Ebersole   Website: https://widowgoals.org/ Email: michelle@widowgoals.org Social media: @widowgoals on TikTok and Instagram Podcast: Widowed 2 Soon (faith based conversations on widowhood and grief)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Christian author and podcast host Wanda Thibodeaux to unpack what grace in the grind really looks like inside modern workplaces driven by hustle culture, quotas and quiet burnout. Wanda breaks down how productivity has become a subtle idol in many careers, why so many leaders feel spiritually and emotionally empty, and how faith, neuroscience and mental health can actually work together at the office instead of competing. This conversation is for high achievers, faith driven professionals, HR leaders, pastors and founders who feel called to do meaningful work but are exhausted by toxic work culture. If you have ever wondered how to bring your faith into meetings without preaching, how to lead with compassion without dropping performance, and how to find small “joy jolts” on the job when your soul feels drained, this episode will give you practical, grounded and very real language to start shifting your workday from survival into purpose. About The Guest  : Wanda Thibodeaux is a professional Christian author, co writer and host of the podcast Faithful On The Clock. A trauma survivor and advocate for emotional honesty in leadership, her work has been featured in Forbes and Harvard Business Review. Her latest book, “Grace In The Grind, 52 Devotions For Thriving In The Workplace,” helps faith driven professionals navigate burnout, toxic work culture and ambition without losing their soul in the process. Key Takeaways  : Productivity culture can become modern idolatry when achievement and output are treated as what will save us, while faith, rest and mental health get pushed to the back of the line. Faith at work is less about preaching and more about presence. Wanda emphasizes that people notice how you carry yourself, how you listen and how you support others long before they care what you say you believe. Grace in the workplace starts with self forgiveness and patience. Instead of demanding perfection, we can accept human limits, acknowledge exhaustion and give ourselves room to grow. Small compassionate actions create real psychological safety. Simple gestures like checking in, connecting colleagues with mentors or bringing someone a coffee signal that people are more than “cogs in the wheel.” Joy is built through “joy jolts,” not lightning strike wins. Neuroscience shows that small daily moments of pleasure and gratitude reshape the brain, which means you do not need a dream job to experience real joy. Trauma informed leadership treats people as whole humans. Past pain, loss and stress always walk into the office with us, so healthy leaders slow down, prioritize people and create space for honest conversations. Isolation kills joy. Finding even one person who can truly see you and reflect your value back acts as a mirror and can be a powerful first step out of dread and burnout.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Jessica Rennard, Chief Merchandising Officer at HELPSY and long-time resale innovator, for a real conversation on what sustainable fashion actually looks like behind the scenes. They dig into the tension between mission and margins, how circular fashion and resale really work in practice, and why keeping clothes out of landfills is more complex than any tagline. This is a grounded look at circular fashion, resale, and the clothing reuse economy, including what happens when ethics cost money, why brands still overproduce, and how consumers can buy with more intention. If you care about sustainable fashion, circular economy, mental health of founders, ethical leadership, and conscious consumption, this episode gives you practical questions to ask yourself the next time you hit “buy now”.   About the Guest  : Jessica Rennard is Chief Merchandising Officer at HELPSY, a certified B Corp focused on clothing reuse and circular solutions. She has spent years building the resale and returns ecosystem, from launching her own secondhand business to scaling circular returns models for brands. Jessica is known for her no-nonsense perspective on sustainability. She focuses on real impact, not green marketing.   Key Takeaways: Sustainable fashion is still business. Companies like HELPSY must stay profitable while trying to keep clothing out of landfills, which means constant trade offs between mission and margins. Circular fashion works best when companies find a clear model that balances profitability and sustainability, such as circular returns where brands send returns directly to a reuse partner. Doing the right thing sometimes costs money. Paying to repair or recycle damaged items is not always “financially smart”, yet it is essential if a company claims to be sustainable. There is still confusion over who owns responsibility. Brands, consumers, governments, and manufacturers all touch a garment, but no single sector has fully claimed end of life accountability. Secondhand and resale extend a garment's life, but they do not automatically reduce overproduction. If every secondhand purchase is matched with a new one, the system stays linear. Consumers play a key role. Choosing purposeful purchases and planning what will happen to an item when you are done with it are powerful, practical steps. A simple rule. Before buying, ask where that piece will go next. Donate to trusted nonprofits or reuse partners instead of sending clothing to the trash.   How to Connect with the Guest   Listeners can connect with Jessica Rennard here.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with psychotherapist, spiritual teacher and mystic Catia Batalha to unpack what real healing looks like when you stop separating mind, body and soul. Instead of choosing between therapy or spirituality, Catia explains how yoga, Tantra, mindfulness and Western psychology can work as one integrated system for mental health, trauma recovery and spiritual growth. You will hear a very grounded breakdown of psychosomatic symptoms. How headaches, back pain, skin issues and chronic tension often signal emotional overload or misaligned environments. Catia also unpacks the sacred feminine and sacred masculine. How listening, intuition and sensitivity need to be backed by aligned action, boundaries and responsibility. If you are exhausted by surface level self-care and want a more honest, embodied roadmap, this conversation gives you a practical, spiritually aware framework you can actually apply in daily life. About The Guest: Catia Batalha is a psychotherapist, spiritual teacher, author and mystic who bridges Eastern wisdom and Western psychology. After years of feeling disconnected and numbing out with alcohol, she found yoga and Tantra. That work helped her move from emptiness and suicidal thoughts into a life aligned with soul purpose. Catia now teaches globally on chakras, somatic trauma healing, sacred feminine and masculine balance, intuition and consciousness, helping people remember their wholeness instead of trying to “fix” what feels broken. She is the author of “Echoes of the Timeless”, where she shares her own journey of awakening and the practices that rebuilt her inner world from the ground up. Key Takeaways: Healing works best when it is holistic. Catia shows how combining yoga, Tantra, mindfulness and psychotherapy creates deeper change than focusing on the mind or body in isolation. Your body is not the problem. It is the messenger. Headaches, back pain, menstrual pain, tension and skin issues can be early warning signals that your relationships, work or environment are not aligned with your emotional reality. We cannot out-think our emotions. The mind can insist “I am fine” while the nervous system is overwhelmed. Ignoring that gap leads to stress, burnout and psychosomatic illness. Sacred feminine and sacred masculine must work together. The feminine side listens, feels, intuits and receives guidance. The masculine side takes aligned action, builds structure and brings those insights into the world without controlling or suppressing them. Love is a nervous system strategy, not a cliché. When we treat love, compassion and safety as core conditions, the body can finally stop bracing and start healing. Spiritual practice can redirect rock bottom. Yoga and Tantra helped Catia shift from feeling half-alive, drinking heavily and considering suicide, into teaching, writing and leading courses that support others. Purpose is about contribution, not perfection. The real question becomes. how can my story and my healing process make life better for other people.
